Critor: That part of the OS file doesn't actually do anything does it? Is it possible that they just left it out?

Which they haven't done for 7 years up to now :P

And you thought I was joking :P

This OS seems terribly unstable. And TI still hasn't fixed the Err:Version or Err:Bad Address so I'll have to whip those up. I don't really see what they added though.

Critor: That part of the OS file doesn't actually do anything does it? Is it possible that they just left it out?
This sucks. To me this definitively seems like a BETA OS. I wouldn't be surprised if the final copy was something like 2.73MP or higher, or maybe a fixed 2.71. However maybe they improved some things to make them faster, which might explain the smaller size, but also the possible introduction of new bugs...

I'd like to run this through a differencing program. You can find me in #ti, and I have spare webspace.

Qwerty, what are you talking about. I think you are the one that faked having this OS. I have the one I got from education.ti.com on my calculator right now and it has the ad.
